During this time, I’ve been actively expanding my skill set by learning TypeScript, Java, Angular, design patterns, and scalable software architecture principles. This period has allowed me to explore new technologies, refine my problem-solving approach, and stay hands-on with practical software development while preparing for the next phase of my engineering career.
